Hi, I am the one who transcribed these, and yes you have interpreted correctly. This was the 11th baptism for the year 1861, and recorded on page 11. I have photocopied some of these records. If you would like me to send you a copy, just let me know your email. Ann Messier

Where is the web site to find these records of St Joseph's Catholic Church in Dannemora, NY. I also have ancestors from that area that I have not as yet been able to locate. thanks Nancy Hinerth ----- Original Message ----- From: <Ammessier@cs.com> To: <NYCLINTO-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, September 02, 2002 5:33 PM Subject: Re: [NYCLINTO] Gilbert Harpin & Olive Fontain > Hi, > > I am the one who transcribed these, and yes you have interpreted correctly. > This was the 11th baptism for the year 1861, and recorded on page 11. > > I have photocopied some of these records.

During that time, St. Joseph's had a Monsignor - Landry, I think his name was. He was quite old when he died there in the early 1950s. Shortly before he died, so the story went, either the other priest or the housekeeper found him burning what he said were "Just some old papers". The "old papers" turned out to be marriage and baptismal and other assorted church records. How many were destroyed before he was discovered, is unknown, but anyone looking for records from St. Joseph's should be aware of this. R.L. McKinney
